Backseat Bingo--yes, there is romance after retirement and Liz Blazer explores it in this award-winning animated doc.


Central Escalator--Ride the longest escalator the world, located in the heart of Hong Kong. World premiere. Filmmaker present.


Cross Examination--Josh Weinstein asks total strangers extremely personal questions: about himself. A new take on vox pop. Filmmaker present.


Bessie Cohen from "The Obituary Project," Hope Tucker's haunting reflection on the 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist Fire.


Phantom Limb (2005)--an investigation into Jay Rosenblatt's feelings about his long-dead younger brother. Rosenblatt is known for working with found footage, and in this video, he makes use of home movies "found" in his own family's attic.


Road Does Not End--a conversation with eccentric artist Stanley Marsh III. Marsh discusses his work (including the world-famous "Cadillac Ranch") and shares some of his thoughts on art in general. Marsh is quirky, charming, and inspiring and his character comes across strong and clear in Todd Kent's documentary.


What I'm Looking For (2004)--Shelly Silver relates the story of a woman who sets out to photograph intimate moments in public space. As she finds herself drawn into a series of meetings with strangers contacted through an Internet dating service, her apparently simple task unfolds into ambiguity and obsession.
